How is anything a Miracle if it's of science?

miracle/ˈmirikəl/

A surprising and welcome event that is not explicable by natural or scientific laws and is therefore considered to be the work of a...: "the miracle of rising from the grave" A highly improbable or extraordinary event, development, or accomplishment that brings very welcome consequences.

is it possible that science solves the questions of miracles we just happen to not know all the science laws? thus either making this definition too explicit or the word miracle is always questionable.

Accidents/circumstances and unknown scientific laws is a poor argument for the belief in nothing especially in terms of miracles.

if you can't prove it's not a unknown science law then according to your definition you can't say anything is a miracle with absolute certainty trust me I have spent way to much time arguing definitions... that definition is way too explicit

I can prove that science has unknown laws - if the scientists don't know them, then they are unknown.

I'm not trying to push my beliefs onto anyone. I just said that the belief in nothing is a terrible thing. Everyone has to believe in something, even if it's in gravity.

since we don't know them doesn't mean they don't apply. so would you say before we found out that gravity exists it would be ok to say its a miracle that we are not floating?

Well that depends on how heavy you are and how strong the wind is blowing.

OK, this has gotten a great discussion going, but I'd like to point out that Nothing is still a thing. Therefore, I can believe in nothing. I believe other things besides nothing exist. Like ponies. Atoms. Stars. Even Heavenly bodies.

I mean if we didn't know that gravity existed we should think that it's a miracle we are all on the ground and not floating haha but good joke

I'm not religious. I've stated very often that I am Agnostic.

If there's life out there, they sure as hell can't be smarter than us. Who the hell travels millions of light years just to poke through a hillbilly's asshole?
